Looks like a silly contraption to me, far too slow to replace a car (and earn the misleading article title). I'd find a hybrid quadcopter / https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground_effect_vehicle https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground_effect_vehicle project more worthwhile. Take off and land like a quadcopter, then fly fast and efficiently using the ground effect. Compensate for uneven ground with the down facing rotors... What does the Kitty Hawk compete with? - small helicopters cost $XX.XXX and have been available for many years. Proven technology, though unsafe. E.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mosquito_Aviation_XE https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mosquito_Aviation_XE - small airplanes for the crazy? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KLgR3Ipo-Ng https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KLgR3Ipo-Ng - flying cars that can actually drive on the road? https://www.aeromobil.com/flying-car/ https://www.aeromobil.com/flying-car/ It looks like a toy in comparison, to be operated by quadcopter enthusiasts for 5 minutes ... Perhaps they should call it "flying golf cart"?
